CARE & MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
Descaling the Kettle
1.
Unplug the kettle and allow it to cool
before cleaning.
2.
Wipe the kettle and base with a
soft, damp cloth. Make sure that the
electric socket on the underside of the
kettle is kept dry.
3.
Dry all parts after every use.
You should descale the kettle at least once
a week if you use it frequently. Descaling
removes any mineral deposits that have built
up inside the kettle.
Always
descale the kettle
before and after storing for long periods of
time.
1.
Unplug the kettle and pour out all
water. Make sure the kettle is cool.
2.
Squeeze half a lemon into the kettle,
or add 118 mL / ½ US cup of distilled
vinegar into the kettle.
3.
If the kettle has thick scale buildup,
scrub the kettle’s inner walls with a
non-scratch scrub sponge.
4.
Add 473 mL / 2 US cups of water. Boil
the mixture.
5.
Pour out the mixture, then wipe off
any remaining scale with a non-
abrasive cloth, sponge, or cleaning
brush.
6.
Repeat as needed.
Note:
Never
immerse kettle or power base in
water.
Note:
For quick descaling, add 44 mL / 3 US tbsp
of baking soda to 118 mL / ½ US cup of vinegar into
the kettle. Swirl the mixture around until it coats the
walls of the kettle, wipe with a non-scratch sponge,
and pour the mixture out. This method will
only
work for a thin layer of scale.
Note:
Do not
use steel wool, as this can scratch
the kettle.
Note: Do not
remove the filter from the lid. Doing so will break the filter.
